I did some internet research and it seems that Netgear gets high marks in the Mac-friendliness category. So does Zoom, but not as easy to set up. My brother uses a Netgear with his cable connection so his daughter can use her laptop wirelessly, and as far as compatibility with the TiBook Airport Card, stay tuned until after September 6th and I can tell you if it flew........ Right now I use a regular old Netgear "hub", and no one can tell me if it is really an actual HUB or a ROUTER or both, but I just know it does the job of putting more than one of my many Macs online at once...without any sort of configuration. However, it is not wireless and I am first going to try to use the Card-To-Card type of connection (software router) without Airport BS before I buy a wireless device. ....J
